Android file format for stock Alert Sounds

Thursday 16th of February 2012 / droidforums.net
I was wondering what file format the Alert/Notification sounds that come on Android phones, are in. Everytime I tried to google it I would just get a list of all the sound/music formats supported by android, but never just the format that the stock sounds are in. So can someone help me out with this. or is it different for different brand of phones. I didn't think it was, i figured all android phones used the same file formats, but you never know, so I figured I would ask. But either way, if someone could tell me what file format the notification/alert sounds are in, it would be much appreciatedoh and just in case it is different for some phone makers, I am currently rocking the LG Revolution (which I am hella digging. Gonna be trading it in tho as soon as the Quad-Core Tegra3 Equipped phones come out, can't wait !)

How to set individual alert sounds to my apps?

Tuesday 07th of May 2013 / forums.androidcentral.com
On my iPhone I was always able to set individual alert sounds to my different apps (WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, sms, email, etc, etc).Is this also possible on the Galaxy S4, and how can I do that?

Addding New Notification Alert Sounds

Friday 15th of July 2011 / droidforums.net
Hi,I have figured out how to add new ringtones to my Droid X2 but am stumped how to ad new alert sounds.For instance if I want to select a different Gmail Notification "Ringtone" it is only giving me the option to select one of the ringtones that came with the phone. None of the Ringtones I added to my SD card that are avaiable for my contact list show up under the G-mail settings.Is there any fix for that?

Disabling CMAS alert sounds

Friday 22nd of February 2013 / androidforums.com
Hello all. I am a new user of the Huawei Ascend Y (I think it's what I have..H866C) from straight talk. Anyway, I seriously need to figure out how to disable the alarming sound that comes from my phone when one of those CMAS alerts comes through. Even the test messages have that alarming, loud sound like the test of the emergency broadcast system. I always have my phone on silent/vibrate and it still makes the sound which is very disruptive at my workplace. Help

S4: Text Alert Sounds

Wednesday 01st of May 2013 / forums.androidcentral.com
I was just in an AT&T store earlier today playing with an S4, and I was delighted to see that assigning different text alert sounds to individual contacts is now a standard feature! Does anyone know if this is part of Android 4.2.2, or just an upgrade to Samsung TouchWiz? Thanks!

Alert Sounds Help

Saturday 29th of March 2014 / androidforums.com
Is there a way to set a custom text alert for each contact/friend on my phone. Also ring tone for contact/friends? Like if my friend mark calls, it will play the game of thrones ring tone. Or if Chris calls it will play the walking dead ring tone or alert on text. I set i certain tone to individual friends. I had the Iphone before this phone and had the option to do this. Does the LG G2 let you do this? Also can you set custom alert sounds on the game alerts? The life is good sound alert is annoying and for some reason when i change it to a different one of the set thats on there and always plays that one no matter what i set it on, strange. On game alerts, im asking same thing like the ring tone and alert sounds. Can you set a custom sounds on there alerts when they alert you? Like have there alert do a bottle cap opening noise of something along those lines. Please let me know. Still learning the phone.

no text alert sounds after KitKat update

Tuesday 08th of July 2014 / forums.androidcentral.com
Since I updated my phone, none of my text alert sounds work. If I try to change the alert, it won't play any of them in the preview mode either. My ringtone, alarm tone, etc. work just fine. My phone will vibrate and show a preview of the text when I receive one, but does not make any sound. Have tried restarting the phone, changing the alert tone, nothing works. Please help!!!
